OpenHR is an AI-powered HRMS plus managed staffing platform. It combines payroll, ATS, people analytics, and employee self-service in one place, with optional hands-on HR and recruiting support for teams that do not have a full in-house HR function.

How does managed staffing differ from the self-serve HRMS?

The HRMS is software you use directly. Managed staffing adds dedicated specialists for sourcing, screening, onboarding, payroll operations, and compliance so execution is handled for you with clear SLAs, while you still get the same platform for employees and managers.

Can we start with the platform only and add staffing later?

Yes. Many teams begin with the HRMS for payroll, attendance, and hiring workflows, then layer on staffing when headcount or workload grows. We can align the rollout to your roadmap.

Is OpenHR suitable for startups and mid-size companies?

OpenHR is built for growing companies that want enterprise-grade HR and payroll without stitching together many tools. Pricing and onboarding are designed to scale from small teams to hundreds of employees.

How do employees access payslips, leave, and policies?

Employees use a mobile-first self-service portal for leave, attendance, payslips, profile updates, and HR policy questions, including an AI assistant for quick answers on company rules.

How can I see a demo or talk to sales?

You can start free from the website, book a demo on WhatsApp, or visit the Help Center for guides. Our team will walk through HRMS, staffing options, and rollout for your geography.
